Ontario government says nine supervised consumption sites forced to shut down will be converted into treatment hubs.

The Progressive Conservative government recently fast-tracked legislation banning the sites from operating within 200 metres of a school or daycare.

Advocates for the sites have condemned the move to close them, saying the decision will put the lives of many substance users at risk.
